The Song Dynasty had it right :
Reinstitute intelligence tests for government officials.

@robbienorlyn Changing instances again, or just creating another account?

They played their way into the UK’s top chess division. Now they’re being told they have to add a man to compete there.

The She Plays to Win Lionesses A Team, the UK’s only all-female chess team, earned promotion to Division 1 of the Four Nations Chess League after years of proving they belong. Created to give girls a place to compete in a game where women remain vastly underrepresented, the team is now being told it can no longer compete

@mehdirhasan Same reason a self-professed Christian hates anyone who's not a Christian or white?

RFK Jr was likely trying to use a COVID disinformation tactic, but he messed up the delivery.

To deceive, the right likes to say that *Emergency Room* visits fell in 2020.

While that stat is true, it’s because many people use the ER as primary care. But in 2020 they avoided the ER and delayed care due to social distancing.

Meanwhile, some hospitals had to increase intensive care beds by over 300% to due to an influx of critical COVID patients. 

So in 2020, ER visits fell, but ICUs were full.

@mls14 Thank you! Retirement was unexpected and overwhelming. I've got it back under control!

Trump Media has officially launched _Truth API_, its new paid data service providing faster access to Trump's Truth Social posts

Per the press release, Truth API gives firms "a direct, licensed, real-time feed of the platform’s most market-moving Truths"

It reportedly costs as much as $100k/mo

+ + +

Setting aside just how illegal this is, anyone who buys this genuinely has zero understanding of Trump

His kink is betrayal. If you pay him for this service, he knows you're a sucker and he will absolutely punish you for it. Punishing supporters is one of the only things that gives him something approximating pleasure (see yesterday's NYT piece about what he did to Brad Karp after Karp bent the knee on behalf of Paul Weiss)

The real insiders (a rotating cast comprising his kids, cabinet members, etc) will get the real inside info while the people paying the fee will be rewarded for a few weeks/months then eventually grossly mislead

Subscribers deserve what's coming to them

Anyone who has worked in healthcare will never forget the horrors we have experienced through the pandemic. No amount of lying or gaslighting can ever erase that.

@luckytran RFK, like the others around him, is a fascist eugenicist and fraud who couldnt get a job in the government, but can lick the boot the way trump likes it so he is the "health and human services secretary" when he should be in an inpatient psych facility getting help.

This is a fraudulent regime and a coup. This much is obvious, as trump surrounds himself with bootlicking yes men with broken brains.

RT: @DrRobDavidson He’s an abject failure. He’s attacking the real frontline doctors by spewing total BS about “treatments” for COVID that don’t work. I was there. People were dying and we were doing everything we could to help them. He’s failing us on Measles and explosive diarrhea. He must go.

Mike Johnson: “If we lose the midterms, the Democrats will go after the president’s family, the cabinet, his donors, friends, and the rest of you who have committed crimes.”

It’s my biggest wish. And you?

Please stop saying “lockdowns.” There were never true lockdowns in the US, and it fuels far right narratives to repeat this inaccurate statement. You can say closures, you can say restrictions, or better, you can say public health measures which saved many lives.

MAGA AREN'T DRAWN TO TRUMP BECAUSE HE IS SMART, COMPETENT, OR "CHRISTIAN"

THEY ARE DRAWN TO HIM BECAUSE HE TELLS UNEDUCATED, INSECURE, ANGRY PEOPLE THAT THEIR STUPIDITY, IGNORANCE, AND RACISM ARE ACTUALLY STRENGTHS.

For anyone who's interested, as of this morning's weigh-in, I'm down 40 lbs.
